Answer:

Jill lost 1/3

Bill lost 1/6

and Jack lost 1/4

Make a common denominator -  let's use 12

Jill lost 4/12

Bill lost 2/12

Jack lost 3/12

Add them together = 9/12

reduce by dividing by 3.

total of 3/4 spilt

48 divided into 4 parts then multiplied by 3 of those parts

48 / 4 * 3 = 36

Examine the fraction 3+2i4−2i. Which expression is the first step to simplify the fraction? 3+2i4−2i⋅3−2i3−2i
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is the last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a fraction with complex numbers, the first step to simplify is to multiply up and down the conjugate of the denominator, this will eliminate the complex part of the denominator, and in this way you can separate the expression in its real and complex part.

For the expression:

\frac{3 + 2i}{4-2i
}

The denominator conjugate is 4 + 2i

When multiplied, the denominator is:

4 ^ 2 -4i ^ 2 = 16 -4 (-1) = 20

Approximately 32,400 citizens of the country died in 2015. Express the toll in deaths per day
Zigmanuir [339]

There is 90 deaths per day.

First it tells us 32,400 people died in 2015, which also mean that many people died that year.

We have to find the number of people died each month first.

32,400÷12 because 12 is the total number of months in a year.

2700 people died in a month, not we need to find how many people died each day so we divided it by 30 and we get

90 deaths per day.

How do I solve this problem?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

y+11=-\frac{1}{4}(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

since the equation is perpendicular to y=4x-2, m=-1/4 (negative reciprocal). (x_1,y_1)=(4,-11), plug all the values into the equation y- y_1 = m(x-x_1) and we get y+11=-\frac{1}{4}(x-4)

8.) A line passes through the points (k, 4) and (3, -6). The line is perpendicular to
amm1812

Answer:

K = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by determining the gradient of the equation 5y + 4x = 8. This can be obtained as follow:

5y + 4x = 8

Rearrange

5y = 8 – 4x

5y = –4x + 8

Comparing 5y = –4x + 8 with y = mx + c, the gradient m is –4

Next, we shall determine the gradient of the line perpendicular to the line with equation 5y = 8 – 4x.

This can be obtained as follow:

For perpendicular lines, their gradient is given by:

m1 × m2 = – 1

With the above formula, we can obtain the gradient of the line as follow:

m1 × m2 = – 1

m1 = –4

–4 × m2 = – 1

Divide both side by –4

m2 = –1/–4

m2 = 1/4

Finally, we shall determine the value of k as follow:

Coordinate => (k, 4) and (3, –6)

x1 coordinate = k

y1 coordinate = 4

x2 coordinate = 3

y2 coordinate = –6

Gradient (m) = 1/4

m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

1/4 = (–6 – 4) / (3 – K)

1/4 = –10 /(3 – K)

Cross multiply

3 – K = 4 × –10

3 – K = –40

Collect like terms

– K = – 40 –3

–k = –43

Divide both side by – 1

K = –43/–1

k = 43
